MISCELLANEOUS RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE
The representatives OF the snthrsets cssl producing
The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1887-01-12

TO the intelligence of an enlightened people. It's
an old saying that community that is governed
least is governed best. II might be well, then, for
the present session of the Legislature to elect a
Senator to succeed Ben Harrison, pass measures
that are of essential importance and adjourn.
There will likely be some legislation on the cues
ton OF convict contract labor. There is
q demand for the abolition of the convict con-
tract system, or at least that it be so
amended as to prevent such contracts from
working an injury to the laboring classes. The
question demands the earnest consideration OF
the present Legislature. on the liquor question
we believe that the public sentiment demands
reasonable increase in the license tax. It does
not seem possible that any radical temperance
legislation can be enacted. and 1t is just as well
that none should be. Legislation is at best an
impractieable way of bringing about Temperance
reform. It is the experience of the past that pro-
hibitory laws do not prohibit. The completion oil
the asylums for the insane is a matter that will
command the attention of the Legislature. These
institutions are nearing completion, and will be
ready for occupancy next summer. More money
has already been expended in their construction
than has been appropriated for the purpose. The
Legislature viii therefore be required to sppro-
pirate a sum sufficient to complete and finish
them. This should be promptly done in order
that the unfortunate Of the State may be early
nrovidad for

Knocked Out First Round.


The tack of the Republican buldozers in the
State Senate has been effectually broken. Their
arch plot to steal United States Senator met
with Just defeat Their high-handed lawless-
ness could not continue for all time without
being sturdily resented. Heretofore the Demo
Gratis of Indiana have submitted to one indignity
after another without a whimper; but on the
contrary, when smote upon one cheek submits
sively turned the other for punishment 1t had
gone far enough. cry went up from all parts OF
t. State that such cringing party policies should
be abrogated. The people demanded, in this in
stance, that those in whose hands they had iu-
trusted their rights should act like men. not as
whipped whelps. They demanded that their
voices through the ballot box should not be con-
signed to the Republican waste-basket. The Sen
ators awoke 10 the emergency, and the thirty-one
Senators, standing shoulder to shoulde-. pre-
sented Macedonian phslanx that all the well,
practiced parliamentary articles and crooked
scheming of the Republicans could not break.
They were met at every point and invariably In
continently put to fight.
